My system is not decent

Chapter 1306 The tip of the iceberg

Chen Wenzhe is still very interested in man-made shipwrecks.

However, Chen Wenzhe is not very interested in the large-scale shipwreck area caused by the war, because too many people know about this kind of place.

However, this kind of area still provided him with another treasure hunting clue.

He had also tracked a few neon warships in the late World War II before. You know, those were all treasure ships.

Unfortunately, according to the clues he provided, Gao Qijing found many treasure spots, but he did not find any trace of the four treasure ships.

Now that I think about it, those four treasure ships probably disappeared into the ocean, and I don't know where they sank!
Compared with the devil's tomb in Truk Lagoon, Chen Wenzhe still likes this kind of shipwreck cemetery.

However, if you want to find it, I am afraid that you have to study the history of the second generation war.

This time, Gao Qijing was probably out of luck. The porcelain he found were real and fake, and there were all kinds of them.

The most important thing is that there are treasures of shipwrecks from the Ming Dynasty and treasures from the Qing Dynasty.

If these were all found in the same place, then what was discovered this time may not be a simple sunken ship.

In fact, such clear seas cannot be said to be everywhere in the ocean, but they are not uncommon either.

The ocean is magical. It can be said that anything can happen.

People who like to read tomb robbery novels often see many strange tombs in them, either built at the bottom of caves or sunk into the sea.

There are also many large mausoleums in history, and the locations where they were indeed built are also very remote.

So do sea tombs really exist?In fact, it exists in existing archaeology, but most of them are shipwreck tombs, which are different from those in the novel.

Undersea tombs exist, but this kind of mausoleum will not be like an underwater palace.

Of course, it will not have many exquisite funeral objects, and it will definitely not carefully design many organs to prevent tomb robbers.

Because storing it on the seabed itself represents absolute safety, at least in ancient times, it was absolutely safe.

The underwater tombs discovered by modern archaeology are generally counterpoint shipwreck tombs, that is, many merchant ships sank during sea transportation.

To say that the largest underwater tomb that has been salvaged so far is "Nanhai No. [-]".

It is very rare that the dust has been sealed in the seabed for [-] years without decay.

As a merchant ship on the Maritime Silk Road, the value of porcelain products and various transport commodities in it is as high as 3000 billion US dollars.

It can be said that it is a very huge archaeological workload. It has been salvaged for more than 30 years before the Nanhai No. [-] was completely salvaged.

Finally, a museum was specially set up to exhibit the cultural relics from Nanhai No. [-].

In addition, after the Nanhai No. [-] submarine tomb was salvaged, many shipwreck tombs were also excavated one after another.

For example, Huaguang Reef No. 1, however, Huaguang Reef No. 1 was salvaged for only one year.

Therefore, it is really rare to be able to compare with Nanhai Tomb No. [-].

Its archaeological value is even comparable to Qin Terracotta Army.

Among them, more than 18 pieces of fine cultural relics were unearthed, which has made a major historical breakthrough for the entire Southeast Asia, the history of ceramics, and the history of shipping.

And this is just Nanhai No. [-]. Since there is Nanhai No. [-], there must be Nanhai No. [-] and Nanhai No. [-]!
Let’s just say that the Nanhai No. [-] shipwreck was named after the discovery of the Nanhai No. [-] shipwreck.

Nanhai No. [-] is a ship that transported porcelain outwards through the Maritime Silk Road in the early Southern Song Dynasty.

Unfortunately, it crashed and sank during transportation, and now we have discovered and salvaged it.

But there is actually a sunken ship near it, called Nanhai No. [-].

So what exactly is in Nanhai No. [-]?
On June 2006, 6, archaeologists searched underwater and confirmed the existence of "Nanhai II".

It is nearly [-] meters long, and the sinking time is about the Wanli period in the late Ming Dynasty.

There are a lot of porcelain scattered on the ship and the nearby seabed. It is said that there are tens of thousands of them. It may be a ship specialized in transporting porcelain.

In fact, "Nanhai II" was discovered in May [-].

On the morning of May 5, the police station of the Toushan Frontier Defense Detachment received a call from the masses, and 25 pieces of ancient porcelain that had just been salvaged were seized on two fishing boats in the waters of the Nanpeng Islands near Nan'ao.

After questioning, it turned out that some fishermen discovered the existence of the sunken ship when they were working underwater.

So archaeologists came to South Australia to investigate and study the sunken ship.

The existence of the ship was finally determined, and the artifacts on it were investigated and studied.

Those porcelains and cultural relics are very exquisite, showing the superb skills of porcelain culture and shipbuilding in the Wanli period of the late Ming Dynasty.

These discoveries must be of great significance to archaeologists studying the history of the late Ming Dynasty.

Although Nanhai No. [-] is not as big as Nanhai No. [-], it still has special significance due to the age and types of cultural relics.

Nanhai No. [-] is different. Nanhai No. [-] is a ship that sank in the early Southern Song Dynasty.

Discovered in Yangjiang waters in 1987, it is the first shipwreck site discovered in my country.

It is very huge, with a length of 41.8 meters and a height of 4 meters. More than 18 cultural relics have been unearthed, which is of great significance.

And in the vicinity of the Nanhai No. [-] and No. [-] shipwrecks, there is a dangerous sea area.

This place is on the Silk Road in the ancient Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties, so as long as the weather is bad, merchant ships passing through this sea area may sink.

Due to the huge number of ancient shipwrecks and the vastness of the South China Sea, the location of many sunken ships was also difficult to determine for a while.

Therefore, it is estimated that the number of shipwrecks in the South my country Sea is no less than 2000.

Some experts also say that this number is only the tip of the iceberg of shipwrecks in this area.

Because as early as the last century, some people discovered shipwrecks in the South China Sea.

At that time, he was a British professional treasure hunter named Mike Hatcher. He specialized in salvaging underwater sunken ships to sell for money. He was the natural enemy of underwater archeology in many countries.

After that, he salvaged a Huaxia shipwreck, and the porcelain on this shipwreck made him a fortune.

So he turned his attention to more shipwrecks, which also made the country furious.

Later, when the Nanhai No. [-] shipwreck was discovered, archaeologists did not dare to speak out, and overturned the original salvage plan with repeated customizations.

At the beginning, archaeologists only salvaged some porcelain scattered on the surrounding seabed.

Later, archaeologists spent a long time and cost a lot of money to salvage the entire ship.

At that time, there were three dynasties, Song, Yuan and Ming. Such cases were rare, but it was reasonable to exist.

Because in the sea area over there, the porcelain salvaged from the water cannot come from the same boat.

Therefore, it is not just "Nanhai II" just near Nan'ao Island.
